Come, let us return to the LORD;
for he has torn us, that he may heal us;
he has struck us down, and he will bind us up.
After two days he will revive us;
on the third day he will raise us up,
that we may live before him.
Let us know; let us press on to know the LORD;
his going out is sure as the dawn;
he will come to us as the showers,
as the spring rains that water the earth.”
Hosea 6:1-3
The answer is clear in scripture as to what we must do. We must return to the Lord.
This is how we must respond to Covid. Return to the Lord. To the violence. We must return to the Lord. To the division. To the oppression and to the injustices of the world. Return to the Lord.
Revival starts within our own heart.
God has made the path clear and easy to see. We don't need a better president, we don't need more riots and protests or any of the other things we keep doing in our society. We need to return to the Lord.
These words are from the OT but they are just as relevant to us today. God does not change.
Come, let us return to the LORD; for he has torn us, that he may heal us; he has struck us down, and he will bind us up.
Let us press on to know the LORD.
